The 2007 Demerger That Unlocked Billions
The 2007 demerger of Bajaj Auto into three separate listed entities (Bajaj Auto, Bajaj Finserv, and Bajaj Holdings & Investment) was one of the most significant corporate restructurings in Indian business history. Separating the auto business from financial services from the investment holding company allowed each to scale independently — and it unleashed Bajaj Finance into one of the most successful NBFCs of the past decade.
